1 Alleluia! sing to Jesus!
  His the sceptre, His the throne;
  Alleluia! His the triumph,
  His the victory alone:
  Hark! the songs of peaceful Sion
  Thunder like a mighty flood;
  Jesus out of every nation
  Hath redeemed us by His blood.

2 Alleluia! not as orphans
  Are we left in sorrow now;
  Alleluia! He is near us,
  Faith believes, nor questions how:
  Though the cloud from sight received Him,
  When the forty days were o'er:
  Shall our hearts forget His promise,
  "I am with you evermore"?

3 Alleluia! Bread of Heaven,
  Thou on earth our Food, our Stay!
  Alleluia! here the sinful
  Flee to thee from day to day:
  Intercessor, Friend of sinners,
  Earth's Redeemer, plead for me,
  Where the songs of all the sinless
  Sweep across the crystal sea.

4 Alleluia! King eternal,
  Thee the Lord of lords we own;
  Alleluia! born of Mary,
  Earth Thy footstool, heaven Thy throne:
  Thou within the veil hast entered,
  Robed in flesh, our great High-Priest;
  Thou on earth both Priest and Victim
  In the Eucharistic feast.

5 Alleluia! sing to Jesus!
  His the sceptre, His the throne;
  Alleluia! His the triumph,
  His the victory alone;
  Hark! the songs of holy Sion
  Thunder like a mighty flood;
  Jesus out of every nation
  Hath redeemed us by His blood.
